Aftershock Events is the creative evolution of a decade-long partnership — a husband-and-wife powerhouse blending artistry, experience, and community. Co-founders and producers Jessica and Brendan Vandergraff bring their solo ventures together to create something unstoppable: events that connect people through music, story, and immersive design.
Born from over 14 years of creativity rooted in Central Indiana,
Aftershock grew from a love of collaboration and local culture.
Jess brings vision & storytelling to every event.
Bringing his media experience and a lifelong devotion to sound, Brendan channels over 20 years in the underground music scene and his time with Bizarre Noir, Indy’s premier carnival rock band, into the pulse that drives our events.
Brendan drives the soundtrack of Aftershock's experiences.
Together, we curate festivals, Renaissance faires, and markets that blend art, sound, and atmosphere into shared moments that move people. Every Aftershock event celebrates connection, inclusivity, and creative collaboration…
Creating spaces where everyone belongs — and every beat has a story.
From festivals to markets and immersive faires, Aftershock Events brings history, music, and imagination to life
— pulsing with creativity, connection, and community.
Now, Aftershock Events is entering its next chapter.
